It's a colour challenge week on the CAS Colours and Sketches Challenge Blog. Our colours are Pacific Point, So Saffron, and Pear Pizzaz. I'm on a roll with coloring on colored cardstock lately. I started using my small collection of Prismacolor pencils, but didn't have the right blue for Pacific Point. I went to my granddaughters' craft desk and grabbed the 50 colored pencils I purchased from Costco last year and scored! They actually worked well for most of this image!I can't ever remember inking this stamp up and it's old enough that Stampendous doesn't even list it anymore! (It's called Jar Bouquet.) I thought it would be perfect to use as a Mother's Day card for my mom for our CC&S color challenge. Love how those little blue flowers look!
Take a peek at the DT makes HERE and then try your hand at this week's colours! Hope to see you in the gallery.

ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful card with such a vintage feel to it - I love that jar stamp and your colouring is fab - just goes to show the art of the colouring is in the artist not necessarily the expensive tools.
